  1. At least he only twisted his knee and not something else...
  2. Checking in from Premier Sports HQ Freddie was having a good scrap with Nick Morris in ht13 last night but locked up entering the final bend and almost jolted off - I thought he'd smacked his privates on the fuel tank at first but it turned out to be a bit worse than that. Hope he's OK for the next GP.
  3. See, I can commentate on a race without even being able to see it
  4. Drop it please. My comment about staying silent was intended to be humorous. I appreciate you can never please everyone with a commentary, but I try to make it as informative and enjoyable as possible for everyone - and interacting with people through Twitter gets them involved too. As for the biting on small fish comment, I don't like fish much
  5. Ah - I didn't know about that, that's before I worked there. Won't happen this year though.
  6. I don't think that was Premier - every meeting I have done for them from Sweden has been live.
  7. No baiting or starting arguments on my update threads please. Hope you all enjoyed that, thanks to all who helped out.
  8. Hello RnR, thanks for starting the thread so we can banter on here during the broadcast will the blank racecard linked above definitely be the heat format used tonight? I'm a bit out of touch with it all after so long away, Don't forget to tweet me at @MidSportsMedia if you want to say hello during the programme!
  9. It would be brilliant if Ghostwalker could provide his excellent insightful previews again this year - they were immensely helpful during my previous stint as TV commentator. Is a racecard available anywhere to print out, or will there be tomorrow?
  10. Pleased to announce that I will be providing the commentary once again too on both leagues and I will be taking tweets during the live Swedish broadcasts again!
  11. "That Run-Off" as I still refer to it. BWitcher, was one from MBI and the other JSD Videos perchance?
  12. Dave Jessup - every time he was in position to win a major title his engines let him down. Leigh Adams - if only his career hadn't coincided with that of the great Tony Rickardsson, he would surely have won a world title. (Anyone know how Leigh is doing now after his accident a few years back?)
  13. I always call Adam Roynon "The Bionic Man" in my commentaries. Adam Skornicki is the "Rockman" as he looks like a member of a heavy metal band. George Major was "The Flying Banana" thanks to the yellow leathers he had made when he rode for Birmingham to match the club colours. Nigel Boocock was "Little Boy Blue" for the same reason. And I believe that last season Jack Smith and Jack Parkinson-Blackburn became known as "Jackson 5-1"!
  14. Yes it was JSD Video - I've got a couple of old crash compilations of theirs somewhere - Coventry, Long Eaton and Peterborough, plus guest footage from a lot of other tracks (even including Linlithgow!). Personally I thought Colin's commentaries were pretty good, certainly better than my efforts over the last few years!
  15. Was Colin "That's an interesting one for the referee...." whenever anyone fell off?
  16. They were probably all using Mauger's bikes. (edit - just seen that Steve said the same above)
